Motor points( Upper Limb)

 Motor point is a small area on a muscle at which the minimal amount of electrical stimulation will cause muscle to contract.

How to find motor point
To locate your own motor point more accurately, you can move the positive electrode slightly (red cable) and watch where the muscle response is the best (strongest twitch of the same intensity). The motor point pen is an accessory that is sold separately in order to find the motor point
Motor points of upper limb
Placement of electrodes is very important 
red and black electrode cat is black black is active means pen electrode will be black while red one will be pad electrode.

APPLICATIONS OF LASER THERAPY

Image
  Introduction: Physiotherapy, the practice of restoring movement and function to those affected by injury, illness, or disability, has evolved significantly over the years. One of the most groundbreaking advancements in this field is the integration of laser therapy. Laser therapy, also known as photo biomodulation therapy or low-level laser therapy (LLLT), utilizes light energy to stimulate healing and reduce pain. In this blog, we delve into the principles, applications, and benefits of laser therapy in physiotherapy. Understanding Laser Therapy: Laser therapy involves the use of specific wavelengths of light to penetrate the skin and stimulate cellular activity. These wavelengths interact with the body's tissues at a cellular level, triggering various physiological responses. Unlike surgical lasers that cut or burn tissue, therapeutic lasers used in physiotherapy deliver low levels of light that do not generate heat and are non-invasive. Mechanism of Action: At the cellular...
